Our **staking model** is different by design: * **It’s non-inflationary: rewards come from ecosystem revenue, not from minting new tokens** * **It’s sustainable: built for long-term value, not short-term pumps** * **And it does more than just earn you yield - it earns you status, access, and airdrops** When you stake, you enter the Pineapple VIP system: a point-based model that reflects both your contribution and commitment. The more you stake, and the longer you lock it up, the more points you earn and the higher your tier. Points are awarded instantly when you stake. They’re calculated using a simple formula: **Points = Amount of PAPPLE Staked × Lock Duration Multiplier** Each tier unlocks increasingly powerful benefits across the Pineapple ecosystem - from early access to new launches and guaranteed allocations, to exclusive airdrops, VIP-only rewards, and future protocol-level perks. On top of up to 15% APY (generated from token tax revenue), we’ll also be distributing up to 50% of our wider ecosystem revenue to our highest tier stakers. In just 12 hours, over 10% of total supply was staked by our community (now 15% at $1.5 million TVL less than a week later), so it’s clear they see the benefits!

You're very welcome, thank you for your question. Currently, projects have to juggle launchpads, DEXs, bots, and dashboards in order to launch, grow, and retain users: slowing growth and splitting communities. Traders bounce between tools to discover, trade, stake, learn, and engage: causing drop-off, friction, and fatigue. Mass adoption of DeFi won’t come from another overly complicated tool for degens - it needs an experience that’s powerful, unified, and easy enough for the next billion users. In its full form, Pineapple is building the *first* end-to-end DeFi ecosystem that connects the entire on-chain journey. Projects can be built from the ground up with end-to-end infrastructure: incubation, liquidity, staking, social and on chain-engagement, and more. Traders get early access to high-potential tokens, low-fee trading, incentivized learning, reward activation, and automated strategies - all in one simple to use platform. At the core of that ecosystem is our native utility token $PAPPLE: the key to unlocking the full Pineapple ecosystem. It powers access, governance, and boosts rewards through a multiplier effect across our Pineapple products. Our non-inflationary staking model doesn’t just earn you yield (up to 15% APY) - it also unlocks a points-based system that multiplies based on how much and how long you stake. These points determine your access tier, with each level unlocking deeper perks across the platform, including priority access to Pineapple Express token launches, higher staking rewards, airdrops, new releases, and more. And with even more utility coming soon, $PAPPLE holders will continue to gain from every new layer Pineapple launches. Staking is live now - we reached over 10% of total supply staked in the first 12 hours, and within less than a week our community has collectively [staked ](https://staking.pineappledex.com)$1.5 million. We’re really proud of this - it’s a huge achievement and a big sign of what’s to come.
